In just a few weeks, we'll publicly unveil our new message board community. Currently, it's in beta, a trial environment where new features are being added each week but you can preview it today here.
As a community manager, I am a member of many social networking sites and while I love them all I find that message boards are where I spend most of my time. I enjoy a circle of online friends who share the same interests and this is where I find information and support.
I enjoy Black Voices for this very reason.
I am so proud of the new Community we've built. As a team, the Black Voices staff took a series of steps to ensure our members came first. We surveyed our most engaged members and gathered insight on what you loved and where we needed improvements. Secondly, we took our time. We didn't build this community overnight. This is many months (and some would say years) of hard work, consulting, and technical professionals in New York, Washington, DC, Bangalore, and Dublin. We brought in the best for the best! Finally, we communicated with you, our members, the whole way through. BlackNoise, Skuderjaymes, damngranny, and devilswearsfubu are just a handful of names I recall actively posting in the new community and providing their feedback -- both good and bad.
I hope that you will take the time to make the leap over to the new boards and embrace them as so many of your virtual friends have in the past months. If you have any questions, just leave them here on my blog.
See you on the new boards!
